Our sincere condolences. I have wonderful memories of Uncle Germain dancing with his nieces and somehow managed to tire every one of us out, one after the other. He had a wonderful sense of humor and a real joie de vivre. He will be missed. - Posted by: Peter and Pat Stevenson (Niece ) on: Mar 12, 2013
